Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) in the field of chemical production of raw materials properties and uses
Abstract
Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) is a unique nature and a wide range of uses of chemical production raw materials. This paper introduces the properties of TPE in detail, including physical properties, chemical properties, thermal properties and electrical properties, and discusses its various applications in the production of chemical products, such as injection molding, extrusion molding, blow molding and calendering molding.
1. Introduction
Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) is a kind of polymer material with both plastic and rubber characteristics. It has the advantages of good processing performance, recyclability and environmental protection, so it has been widely concerned in the field of chemical production. In this paper, the nature and use of TPE will be discussed in depth.
2. the properties of TPE
1. Physical properties
TPE has excellent physical and mechanical properties, such as high elasticity, high strength, high wear resistance, weather resistance, etc. At the same time, TPE also has the characteristics of low density and wide hardness range, which can be adjusted according to needs.
2. chemical properties
TPE has good resistance to chemical corrosion, acid, alkali, salt and other chemical reagents have good stability. In addition, TPE also has good anti-aging properties and can be used for a long time under harsh environmental conditions.
3. thermal properties
TPE has high thermal stability and low temperature toughness, and can be used in a wide temperature range. At the same time, TPE also has good thermal oxidation resistance and can be used for a long time under high temperature conditions.
4. Electrical properties
TPE has excellent electrical insulation properties and can be widely used in the field of electrical insulation.
3. the use of TPE
1. Injection molding
TPE can be used for injection molding to produce various plastic products, such as mobile phone shells, toys, casters, etc. Because of its good fluidity and processing performance, it can produce products with smooth appearance and stable size.
2. Extrusion molding
TPE can be used for extrusion molding to produce various pipes, profiles, etc. Because of its good extrusion performance and processing stability, it can produce products with smooth surface and precise size.
3. Blow molding
TPE can be used for blow molding to produce various hollow products, such as bottles, cans, etc. Because of its good blow molding performance and processing stability, it can produce products with uniform wall thickness and beautiful appearance.
4. Calendering
TPE can be used for calendering to produce various films, sheets, etc. Because of its good calendering performance and processing stability, it can produce products with uniform thickness and smooth surface.
4. conclusion
thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), as a chemical raw material with unique properties and wide application, plays an important role in chemical production. Through in-depth understanding of the nature and use of TPE, we can better grasp its processing technology and application fields, and provide more possibilities for chemical production.
